Debug Digital Designs Faster with Advanced Parametric Triggering

Although fast waveform update rates can often reveal signal integrity problems, capturing intermittent parametric circuit problems while using a scope’s standard edge triggering mode is still based on statistical odds. Not only can advanced parametric triggering help synchronize oscilloscope acquisitions and display on known complex signal activity, but this type of triggering can also be used to test for signal parametric violation conditions such as setup & hold time violations, edge speed violations, pulse amplitude violations (runts), pulse width violations, etc.

Keysight’s new DSO/MSO3000 X-Series InfiniiVision oscilloscopes come standard with a variety of advanced parametric triggering and search/navigation capabilities. During this presentation you will learn the meaning of each of these violation signal conditions, as well as how to setup the scope to trigger on and test for a variety of parametric signal violation conditions using the scope’s built-in training signals and advanced triggering/search/navigation capabilities.
